I picked operative because it was dex based and went with a pilot, but reading the material it does seem to have lots of nice things, especially when it comes to skills. Is starfinder point buy really point per point up to 18?? For those of used to paying 3 to 4 points to advance stats near 18 it seems amazing.
I just reviewed some Starfinder materials -- we can pick alignments and a diety like Pathfinder! So Ysogi, precog, ace pilot CG worshipper of Weydan constantly drinks coffee and carries expresso pods for his handy portable battery driven coffee maker that fits into his pilot booster seat. Starting feat skill synergy : pilot/perception. Sadly Ysoki avatars may not be available.

Ereviss easily finds the book of poetry, and picks it up. Curiously, he found most human poetry somewhat fanciful, but was willing to give the book a chance. Kn arcana: 1d20 + 10 ⇒ (10) + 10 = 20 "No..the death happened here, not out of town. We need to search this area to find more clues. She died near the spawn."

Ereviss smiles and heads across. "Let us begin with a story." Ereviss tells an inspiring story about a crew who hunted foul undead. Ereviss can use his bardic performance

Ereviss smiles:

Ereviss speaks to the Beast. He slowly explains all they have done in their investigation. Although he expects the Beast to understand very little, he hopes the fact that they are helping him is clear. "We are here to help you. Please tell us if you know anything about this. It will help us to help you." Ereviss shows the list of witnesses. "We can visit these sisters next."

Someone who was hurt and used equipment and probably magic to cause trouble. Wore a mask to appear like the beast." Ereviss thinks they have done well here. He is ready to go back.

Ereviss readies his bow and pulls Kendra under cover. If time permits, he takes cover.

Ereviss tosses the man a gold piece.
"We will be cautious." As they head down tot he Boneyard, they are alert for this creature.

Ereviss grabs the book of drama he has been writing their story into. Writing the next Act with a neat handwriting that is crisp and efficient. As they arrive in the gloomy town of Morast, he has done his best to inspire the group to greatness. "Let us see what we can discover of where the Beast has been here and talk to any witnesses." All allies within 30 feet gain a +2 bonus on Initiative checks, Perception, and Disable Device checks for 1 hour.

Ereviss attempts to restrain Christoph, as he seems to feel the Beast is helping as best he can. "We will help you. And Kendra and I will be your family for now. Just tell us what you remember before you woke up. Walk us through your last couple of days and tell us where you live." Ereviss gives Kendra a beseeching look, as he hopes she shares his compassion. Ereviss take out a monagrammed handkerchief with an E ornately scripted and hands it to the beast.

Ereviss looks at the Beast, and tries to be friendly. "I am sure much that has happened to your is frightening. We are here to help. I am Ereviss and we would like to be your friends. What do you remember of the last few days?" Ereviss looks the creature in the eyes, a touch of concern and curiousity on his face.
After hearing the answer, he continues:

Ereviss uses his skills as an investigator, and circulates through town talking to a few of the townies. He comes back with bad news. "This trial is somewhat of a farce. They chose a stuttering defender who lost his last six murder cases. Everyone is out for blood and want to see the beast burned alive in the Punishing Man." He looks at the group:
As they are introduced to the new barrister, Ereviss bows: "We are only here to help you. Tell us what you know, and we will see if we can help you mount a credible defense. This could be the trial that makes you famous." Not sure where to start, Ereviss appeals to his vanity.

Ereviss thanks the judge. "That is some wealth. I did not expect any more riches than I already have, but, they shall be used to fight the evil that destroyed the professor. Hopefully I can get my armor enchanted." 1000k = +1 armor or amulet of natural armor for me

Ereviss nods, and offers a deep bow of respect to the woman of law in the town.
Ereviss gestures to the general center of the city, where the atmosphere was unsettling to the genteel elf.

Ereviss is curious.
